No, and I'd sure appreciate it if u were to explain it to me. I had no intention to cause offense. Just offered a compliment is all.

if you were to have guys come up to you on an almost-daily basis and say things along the lines of "hey, yer cute!" to you and then get pissy when you don't acknowledge 'em (when you DON'T have to in the first place), it'd piss you off.

focus people.

Why should we hate each other on this site over little things, when there are so many REAL reasons to hate people like 2the9s.

BSK3478 said:

No, I wouldn't mind, although to be honest I don't think I'm complimented as often as u are, it seems. I guess we just have very different personalities. I appreciate genuine compliments, especially when they come from people I don't expect them to. I don't mind that bit of interaction, and that bit of extra effort to make a momentary connection with someone, no matter how small. I guess you're just too popular for your own liking. Of course you don't HAVE to acknowledge compliments. You don't HAVE to acknowledge anything or anyone. It just usually makes people feel good, that's all. I figure there's no harm in it and it's a positive part of life - interacting with people, having a mutually positive feeling. Rest assured, you've made yourself understood and I'm now well aware that you will not appreciate a compliment from me in future. I'm sorry I wasted both yours and my time. In the end it was just a small compliment, albeit not the first one sent in your direction, but here we are. I don't think I've ever had this conversation before and I doubt I ever will again. I don't think I'll stop complimenting people though. Hmmm...

i've never been popular to begin with, so that's struck out.

I don't have time to read this post to the end, but I think I agree with it 100%!!

Here's a little pet-peeve of mine...

Thanks to the PATRIOT Act we are all of a sudden living in a police state in which U.S. citizens can now be swept up and held indefinitely, without a trial, without charges ever being brought against them!

I don't know about you, but I kinda thought the U.S. Constitution/Bill of Rights was a good thing.

shit, dubya's a bigger pet peeve to me than that.

that doesn't mean automatically mean that i'm popular--it's just random men who walk past me on the street on any given day who think i'm pretty. totally different.

BSK3478 said:

How dare they?

I wonder what their agenda is.

Damn people and their compliments!

Fauxie said:

Dude, you're HAWT.

You use that on everyone now. It weakens it's meaning.

This shit is TIGHT!!!!!

Fauxie said:

fuck it. you don't get it.

BSK3478 said:

Obviously not, but then there's always that line. It usefully negates the need for clarity.

Just mark me stupid and move on, safe and comfy in the knowledge that I just didn't 'get' it.

For God's sake I live in South Carolina. Can it really get any worse than that?

Yeah, I would be pretty happy if random people stopped me and told me I was pretty. DOES NOT HAPPEN.

I've thought that I should compliment random people more. I do sometimes, but it's usually about clothing or whatnot. . . when I'm thinking somebody is super yummy, I'm usually too shy to tell them that. Dunno, maybe it would just annoy them, or make then think I was coming on to them when I was just trying to be nice.




Anyway, redirect your compliments to me. I'm not nearly as hawt as. . .um. . .(scrolling). . .BSK3478. . . but you can lie about it, I don't mind.

Fauxie can tell me I'm cute anytime! The closest random men have said to me in the street is "show us your pink bits"

Washington state recognizes a crime called "Slander of woman":

Every person who, in the presence or hearing of any person other than the female slandered, whether she be present or not, shall maliciously speak of or concerning any female of the age of twelve years or upwards, not a common prostitute, any false or defamatory words or language which shall injure or impair the reputation of any such female for virtue or chastity or which shall expose her to hatred, contempt or ridicule, shall be guilty of a misdemeanor. Every slander herein mentioned shall be deemed to be malicious unless justified, and shall be justified when the language charged as slanderous, false or defamatory is true and fair, and was spoken with good motives and for justifiable ends.

(Cite: RCW 9.58.110.)

This law has been repealed, effective July 24, 2005, by Senate Bill 5148. So it's still in effect (although not enforced) for two more weeks.

no, you're intelligent, that's probably the problem.

Something about not having sex with chickens or something....I don't recall the exact wording of it, though I have made sure my brief knows exactly where I stand with my defence in my up-coming trial

Oh, I just have to be very, very , very quiet as I approach the farm.....

...The excitement at being caught just add to the experience..

In my home country (Sweden) it isn't usually the laws themselves that are dumb, but the way people live by them. Every other citizen sees him/herself as a bloody law enforcer and will meddle with other people's lives and tell them off if they so just jaywalk, drop a candy wrapper on the sidewalk or make a wrong turn in traffic. It's really, really annoying. They should mind their own damn business.
